The Latest: Lawmakers frustrated after deputy AG briefing

House members leaving a briefing by the deputy attorney general on the probe of connections between Russia and Donald Trump's presidential campaign say they're frustrated at not getting answers.

Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein wrote the memo the president initially cited as justification for firing FBI Director James Comey. Michigan Republican Rep. Dave Trott says lawmakers pressed Rosenstein on the memo but he declined to respond.

1. What a GUILTY douchebag.

Although everyone is giving Rosenstein props for appointing Mueller, I'd say Rosenstein and Mueller have a conflict of interest. At this point, it looks like Rosenstein joined the coverup cabal, and should be among those Mueller is investigating.

5. Or maybe Trump's role in the writing of the letter

Was actually, in itself, an act which clearly indicated obstruction of justice in its own right. Rosenstein, the consummate attorney, may be attempting to preserve the evidence for further investigative scrutiny.

Or maybe not. I'm certainly not a Rosenstein apologist. Truth is, this entire firing of Comey fiasco is a headscratcher from top to bottom. It just seems there's more at play here than what initially meets the eye.
